I woke up in Kelowna after 6 hours of sleep--not enough, but it'll get me through until Victoria. I'll sleep in the car. I had an exciting drive over the rockies as my right toe went numb and tingly. I wasn't sure if my right leg was going to go limp or what, no hospitals up there in the rockies so I would have been in deep trouble. All this time zone shifting is killing me too.
This morning at breakfast across the road at DeDutch my hands were trembling and my vision was terrible. I could hardly see what I was eating, but it tasted good. :) SO I'm getting ready for the second leg to Victoria. We are all a little sleep deprived today and I think that's causing most of my troubles.
I finished off my meds this morning and threw the container into the garbage. That felt good. I just wish my MS attack would go away. I still can't see and it's starting to ware me down. Of course all the travelling in so short a time can do that too. I'm just trying to enjoy the scenery and keep my mood light and pleasent. We had a great day of driving yesterday, lots of fun and laughter. So things are going well.
